Gu Fang looked at the liquid, which had decreased by a full two-thirds from its original volume, and said thoughtfully: "I never gave it much thought before, but now that I see it with my own eyes, after distillation only this small amount remains.

We usually say 'purification,' but what you just said makes me feel that 'the essence lies in concentration' is really apt."
Gu Fang had grown used to such sneak attacks. He just looked at her with a helpless yet indulgent smile: "Xiaoyi is like this... Have you thought of something again?"
